Serenity by Jewlz Lyrics
[Intro]
Hey baby... Look at you.. You're so beautiful
Listen to me, alright? Daddy needs to tell you something
Just hear me out..
(Verse 1)
When you hear this I hope that you understand
That I, was always tryna be the man
That your mother fell in love with.. It will be different I can tell you that
& I would never lie to you, I will only tell you facts
In 6 months you'll be hurtin' your mother's back
A full meal to her will feel like just a snack
Because she is feeding you, the little soul that's already so beautiful
I love you unconditionally, I hope it's mutual
But there's a secret I must tell you
I'm here to help you.. I'm tryna make you hell proof
But.. You're not only my daughter
You are the sins that I carry because of my father
You see in life you are your own author
Don't let somebody write your life out of what they thought up
& see the thing is, the problem is you won't believe it
But, you are a blessing from my inner demons.. Thank God for you
[Hook 1: Jewlz + (Vanity)]
*Phone Rings*
(Yo). Bro.. (Whaddup, man?)
What would you do if I told you I had a daughter?
(I wouldn't believe you.) Why not?
(Because I don't see, in the time I've known you, any sign that you would
I'd be in shock, but I'd accept it.. Why?)
I just wanted to know
(Shut up.. Why?!)
(Verse 2)
You'll learn at sixteen I know it
You'll find a boyfriend but you won't ever try to show it
Because you will be scared of what I might do
Baby I just wanna see if he really likes you
Because, boys, don't know how act
& I know this for a fact because I think about my past
& how I was an ass to the women before, ya mother
I was a mother fu-- Mmm don't let me catch you cussin'
But.. The truth is I was ruthless
& I was so, clueless, the proof is
The broken heart I carry like it's casual
& since we share the same genes I don't wanna pass it to you
I told myself, that if a daughter's my first-born
That you are the blessing from all my sins I must learn from
I wrote verses of all my regrets & I burned them
Of all the sins my father committed I am the worst one
[Hook 2: Jewlz + (Young Novelist)]
*Phone Rings*
(Yo.) Yo bro.. (Yo?)
What would you do if I told you I had a daughter?
(I'd be like 'that's crazy', nigga..
I don't know I would've been like 'damn nigga you got caught slippin'?)
*Jewlz laughs*
('Congrats my nigga, what happened? When did this happen?')
It would just be unexpected? (Yeah... Why?)
(Verse 3)
See what I've done is so pitiful
Expecting guys to treat you like a queen is hypocritical
Cuz if I couldn't do it myself, then why should they
Guess God had an answer for me since I didn't pray
Or, since I never paid, attention, to anything that I'm doin'
I was, abusive to many women
But never did I lay a finger on 'em wrong... by choice
I destroyed so many hearts with the words in my voice
I can't take back words, if I said it, I prolly meant it
But lookin' back I now regret it
But I have no choice but accept it
I hope my next chick knows I learned my lesson
Better yet I want my future wife to know it
I learn my lesson & I know exactly how to show it
I'm practicing more than I'm preachin' now it's time I focus
On the only thing that matters you are so important
You are an image of your father but I know, you're not like me
Even though there is a chance that you might be
You are my princess, & no boy will ever be good enough for you
But I hope that when he comes he loves you
But never will he love you more than me & I mean it baby I do
& if he tells you that he does then he may be a fool
You are my blessing, thank God that he brang me to you
Thought I didn't have to change me, but maybe I do, because I met you
Hey baby... Look at you.. You're so beautiful
Listen to me, alright? Daddy needs to tell you something
Just hear me out..
(Verse 1)
When you hear this I hope that you understand
That I, was always tryna be the man
That your mother fell in love with.. It will be different I can tell you that
